Thank you, seniors, for your time in purple and silver, you will always be apart of#GaiterNation

The life of a female student athlete can be described by many words. "Easy" is not one of them. Over the course of a university career, when your week consists ...of 5 practices, 2 game-weekends, 3 gym sessions, a full university course load, and maybe even a part-time job, "easy" doesn't quite fit the situation. It may leave you wondering if it's truly worth it. Let's hear what former/current athletes have to say. La vie d’une étudiante-athlète peut être représentée par plusieurs mots. Facile n’en fait pas partie. Une semaine typique d’une joueuse de hockey universitaire ressemble à 5 séances d’entraînement sur glace & 3 hors glace, 2 matchs durant le week-end, des cours universitaire, et peut-être même un emploi à temps partiel. On réalise assez vite que le mot facile ne correspond pas à notre situation. Alors, cela en vaut-il vraiment la peine? Écoutons ce que nos anciennes/actuelles joueuses de hockey universitaire ont à vous dire.

Every women’s success should be an inspiration to another. We're strongest when we cheer each other on. #GaiterNation Le succès de chaque femme devrait être une inspiration pour une autre. Nous sommes les plus fortes lorsqu'on s'encourage ensemble.

Happy Birthday Noémie! #GAITERNATION Bonne Fête Noémie!

We want to be an example. It’s really important to be a role model in the community, and for the young kids to connect with our institute. said Katia Heydra. Nous voulons être un exemple. C’est vraiment important d’être un modèle dans la communauté, et pour que les jeunes se rallient à notre institut. a dit Katia Heydra.

"We want to set up camps, special clinics, and also cover different facets of the development, not only for the elite but from MAGH to adults. In this context, it was important to have women on the coaching staff. I also want to include Gaiters' women hockey players in those events to create a sense of belonging and, eventually, grow the pool of women hockey players in the region," said Dominic Desmarais. On veut mettre sur pied des camps, des cliniques spécialisées, et to...ucher tous les volets du développement du hockey féminin, pas seulement l’élite, des jeunes MAGH jusqu’aux adultes. Dans cette optique, c’était important d’avoir des filles, pour diriger des filles. Je veux aussi impliquer les joueuses des Gaiters, dans la tenue d’événement, afin de créer un sentiment d’appartenance et de grossir, éventuellement, le bassin de joueuses de hockey en région , a dit Dominic Desmarais.
